Anyone else here enjoy gothic metal music? I prefer the female soporano fronted style music.  After Forever with floor jansen and Epica with Simon Simons.



youngsubgeoff -> RE: Goth Metal - Metal in general (1/4/2008 6:52:08 PM)

Metal, GOOD. Personally though, my tates are more in the black/death vein, bands like Carcass, Mayhem, Dimmu Borgir, Arch Enemy, and a good many others as well. Good to see a fellow metalhead around here though.



desadeoftheeast -> RE: Goth Metal - Metal in general (1/4/2008 7:56:16 PM)

Metal all the way, though I don't have specific bands. As long as their music's killer.

I'm also into the industrial, darkwave, darkrave shit. Puts me in heat, especially when naked in a room with it on playing. :D



ThinkingKitten -> RE: Goth Metal - Metal in general (1/4/2008 8:01:04 PM)

Nightwish (not really gothic though, much as people try to make them out to be), Theatre of Tragedy, Tristania. Kinda also like Ensiferum a bit and a bit of Echoes of Eternity. New band out of Sault St Marie sounds quite promising too (but not female fronted) - Gates of Winter.

....and oh.... Rob Zombie[sm=evil.gif]

Metallica puts on a good show, live or loud enough on my car stereo to get me some dirty looks, I like a lot of music, Metal is a favorite

I don't know what Goth Metal is but if it's good loud I'll spin it and give it a hear

petdave -> RE: Goth Metal - Metal in general (1/4/2008 9:04:51 PM)

Hm, lots of stuff i haven't heard of here... i'll have to look into it.
How about Lacuna Coil, Jack Off Jill, Babes in Toyland? i guess Evanescence is too popular to count, but that voice!



FangsNfeet -> RE: Goth Metal - Metal in general (1/4/2008 9:37:14 PM)

My goth music ranges from Phantom of The Opera to the sound tracks of End of Days, The Vampire Lastat, and American Were Wolf in Paris. The Mortal Combat CD's also have an interesting varity of goth, metal, and techno. I also have the soundtract to Dark City.

Back to Goth Rock/Metal, I happen to own the Three CD collection "Monsters Of Goth." http://www.amazon.com/Monsters-Goth-CD-Boxed-Set/dp/B000001JKD

Yes, I'm also a Manson and NIN fan.

However, I still question what makes Echo and The Bunny Men gothic. I am a fan of them but they sound more alternitive rock than anything else. I can see how some of there lyrics draw in a gothic crowed but that still does not make them a goth band.

Back to Sound Tracks:

I also have the tracks to "Brain Scan" and "House of a 1000 Corpses" Also, how can I fail to mention "Lost Boys?" How can anyone call themselves a Goth Music fan and not own the sound track to Lost Boys?

I could list more but this sample of my collection shoud suffice of groups and sound tracks for you to enjoy.  



CuriousLord -> RE: Goth Metal - Metal in general (1/5/2008 4:01:08 AM)

What would be the distinction of "gothic metal" beyond "metal"?

Goth metal music?
An oxymoron if ever there was one.

There's a new word for you to learn he he he he he he he



LadyEllen -> RE: Goth Metal - Metal in general (1/5/2008 5:45:38 AM)

Oxymoron - man who posts bizarre comments to internet fora

Metal is the only music worth playing! And one day, our little band will progress from playing blues over and over (brand new drummer, rhythm guitarist with no sense of rhythm, and me who can play rhythm but struggles with lead a bit) and get into it!

E



seeksfemslave -> RE: Goth Metal - Metal in general (1/5/2008 6:04:59 AM)

From what I've heard of metal music LadyE if you do end up playing it the vibrations will blow your new boobs all over the place
What a shame that would be lol.

Funilly enough I recently heard a learned program on radio4 discussing metal music, me and all the other mad oldies were listening, and it mentioned some obscure chord that the music may be.based on Cant recall what it was tho'
So blues three chords
Metal one
Go for it I say.



LadyEllen -> RE: Goth Metal - Metal in general (1/5/2008 6:33:53 AM)

My new fittings and fixtures will be quite safe Seeks. The same security bra which will keep the likes of you out, also serves as an effective means of vibration reduction.

Most interested to know which obscure chord metal might be based on though - lots of people use a lot of Em but there's no need to really - similar with blues, one can play it off anywhere (providing one has enough dexterity, or additional fingers).

E



seeksfemslave -> RE: Goth Metal - Metal in general (1/5/2008 6:51:44 AM)

Em = E minor ? No thats a basic chord.
This one would be say E minor with altered intervals
so E minor chord notes  are E G B D F# A C 
Keep the E and G they define the basic minor mode and then play around with the others.
I am not a good enough musician to explain how.
D# = E flat might be starter.



youngsubgeoff -> RE: Goth Metal - Metal in general (1/5/2008 6:55:38 AM)

hmm, could it perhaps be the tri-tone, the flat 5th I think its called?



seeksfemslave -> RE: Goth Metal - Metal in general (1/5/2008 7:24:51 AM)

Yes it is. I looked it up in Wikipaedia and then had a fiddle on my piano.
A major scale example is
basic C chord = C E G
Tritone = C E F#
The point is that the scale progresses in whole tones
C D E F# G# A# etc not C D E F G A B C
How that translates into metal I haven't a clue.
E scale more common for a guitar is
E F# G# A# B# =(C) D E

A well known example in a popular tune is  Take the A train.
Dah...de da da dee.. Dah = tritone
Moon River actually contains two of the buggas. but the feel of the song,same with A train is not  "whole toneish"
 



youngsubgeoff -> RE: Goth Metal - Metal in general (1/5/2008 7:57:21 AM)

A good example in metal would be the song "Black Sabbath" by the band of the same name, in the guitar riff. perfection!



DesertRat -> RE: Goth Metal - Metal in general (1/5/2008 8:08:15 AM)

I can't say I like all of it, but I bought The Curse by Atreyu...mainly because of the very hot vampire girl on the cover...and I really like some of the songs alot. Not the ones in which the vocalist sings with his mouth full, though.

Bob



youngsubgeoff -> RE: Goth Metal - Metal in general (1/5/2008 8:44:14 AM)

atreyu is NOT metal! Never mention them again!
